Kevin Drum quotes Lant Pritchett on the subject of education. Maybe education ain't as progressive as we'd like to think...

actually grow slower on average. He suggests that one reason for this
may be that putting more educated people into a corrupt bureaucracy may
result in more sophisticated corruption.
